050806019294 Hundreds of abrasive "balls" mounted on a flexible shaft - the fastest, easiest way we've come across to clean and polish older barrels or put a mirror polish in new ones. For used barrels, the Medium-Coarse hone, followed by the Fine, removes rough and tight spots and brings the bore to a bright finish that you can see and feel . . . just run a patch through it before and after; the difference is amazing! We found too, that we could feel tight spots during honing and spend extra time on them until they were evened out. On new barrels, the Fine hone by itself will bring the factory finish up to a beautiful, mirror-bright finish that's a real customer pleaser. Easy to use: chuck in a variable speed electric drill; wet the hone with Flex Hone® oil; start the drill and insert the hone into the barrel from the breech end (if possible). As it cuts, a slurry of abrasive and oil develops to help speed the cutting action. Flex Hone® available (shown below) in sets and individual hones for 10, 12, 16 and 20 gauge barrels as well as .410 bore. Also, special-sized hones for 10, 12, 16, 20 gauge chambers and .410 bore. Instructions walk you through the steps for a perfect job. (You MUST use Flex Hone® oil - all other oils will destroy the abrasive "balls" and void our guarantee!) 750 RPM MAX. Avoid excess pressure.

Introducing the SHOTGUN BARREL POLISHING FLEX HONE® from BROWNELLS, the ultimate solution for cleaning and polishing shotgun barrels.
Our innovative tool features hundreds of abrasive "balls" mounted on a flexible shaft, making it the fastest and easiest way to clean and polish older barrels or achieve a mirror finish on new ones. For used barrels, we recommend starting with the Medium-Coarse hone, followed by the Fine hone, which effectively removes rough and tight spots, leaving the bore with a bright finish that is both visible and tangible.
Simply run a patch through the barrel before and after honing to witness the remarkable difference! During the honing process, you can feel tight spots and spend extra time on them until they are evened out. For new barrels, using the Fine hone alone will elevate the factory finish to a stunning, mirror-bright sheen that will surely impress customers.
Easy to Use: Just chuck it into a variable speed electric drill, wet the hone with Flex Hone® oil, start the drill, and insert the hone into the barrel from the breech end (if possible). As it cuts, a slurry of abrasive and oil forms to enhance the cutting action. The Flex Hone® is available in sets and individual hones for 10, 12, 16, and 20 gauge barrels, as well as .410 bore. We also offer special-sized hones for 10, 12, 16, 20 gauge chambers, and .410 bore.
Our detailed instructions will guide you through the steps to achieve a perfect job. (Remember: You MUST use Flex Hone® oil - all other oils will damage the abrasive "balls" and void our guarantee!)

Easy and effective. Highly recommended 12/01/2016
I am upping my game this turkey season with a new Leupold shotgun scope on top of my Beretta A400 Extreme. New Rhino turkey choke, Nitro shells should be lethal. Buddy told me I should polish the bore and chamber to tighten up groups and add some lethality. He described an arduous hours long process with many steps. I did some research and found the Flex Hone system. Sounded too good to be true. Bought it because I trust Brownell's. Received it today. Kit contains both 400 and 800 grit bore rods, one 800 grit chamber rod and a quart of Flex Hone's cutting oil. I swear it took no more than 20 minutes to polish both chamber and bore to a mirror shine. If you want an ultra shiny bore, this is the product for you. Ten passes in and out is all it took. Don't overdo it as you might take off too much steel. Watch Flex Hone's video for instructions. I didn't wash it out with soapy water as they suggest, just dry patches until they were clean followed with a slightly oily one.

I figured the 12 inch would be long enough to handle this old 410 I was restoring for my grandson- but it wasn't- there remained a 3 inch section in the middle that I could not hone- It did a beautiful job on what I could reach but the center section well it didn't look too good. I had a bit extender but it was too large in diameter to get into the barrell. I ended up with a wirebrush with some steel wool on it and did a pretty good job- I would like to see an extension that would fit inside the barrell.
